NSFC buffer size should be configurable (64-Bit).

Additional Information: Use the new BufferSize nsfc.conf directive to configure the size of the buffer
used to transmit file contents on cache misses. The following directive can
be added to nsfc.conf to increase the buffer size from
its default of 8192 bytes to 16384 bytes: BufferSize=16384

Larger buffer sizes may result in improved throughput at the cost of
increased latency and memory utilization.

SSL: Data larger than 8k is lot when the request triggers new SSL handshake.

Additional Information: By default
Web Server can upload file of size up to 1MB (when client cert authentication
is optional). To upload file larger than 1MB, increase the SSLClientAuthDataLimit limit in the magnus.conf file. In case of simultaneous uploading
of very large files Web Server will use large chunk of memory. To minimize
memory utilization do any of the followings:

If authentication is not required, turn off the authentication.

If authentication is required, make it mandatory by setting require=1 in the obj.conf.

PathCheck fn="get-client-cert" dorequest="1" require="1"

true. In the following example, isSecure is set to false for the web-app by
setting the parameter value to false. The sun-web.xml will look like:
